I thought it might be a good idea to have a thread devoted to some of the constant debates surrounding some Crown Lynn or potentially non Crown Lynn pieces ...

For a start - how about we discuss the condiment set so often identified as Crown Lynn - Frank Carpay..

What do you think? - I only have one piece of it...but this is the pattern in question...

Thanks for raising that question. I have two sets in black and white but have seen blue and I think yellow in the same set. I would love to know if these are firstly Crown Lynn and then obviously whether they were associated with Frank Carpay... Heather : Rolling Eyes : : Question

Post  smoocher Wed Apr 30, 2008 7:57 pm

In the green colour. Had the mustard pot and the wee mustard spoon with it. As I couldnt verify whether or not it was CL, I sold it with the heading Frank Carpy era. I still dont know for sure, but going by the feel of them, they just didnt feel right to me.

Heres a better photo example of the set ...kindly supplied by Krystal24

As above I've seen people attribute this to Frank Carpay and others question if it is even Crown Lynn...if anyone could shed some light on the mystery ...or even if you have an opinion...please join in... thanx

Crown Lynn condiment sets - aka often attributed to "Frank Carpay" - Empty Question - resolved

Post  collectiques Mon May 26, 2008 1:39 pm

During our last sunday night chat session - the "frank carpay" condiment set was discussed briefly and Jeff was of the opinion that they definitely were NOT Frank Carpays work and it also might be unlikely that they were manufactured by Crown Lynn as they don't appear on the production sheets.

Thanks for that infomation Jeff and the other posters on this topic...I hope it helps collectors make informed buying decisions in the future. arms

Post  golden_kiwi Tue Jun 24, 2008 10:57 pm

We had the dark green set when I was a kid. We lived in West Auckland...& had heaps of Crown Lynn! But I'm no help at all as I have no idea who made ours as it has long since disappeared (to the op shop no doubt). I have noticed that different sets for sale do seem to have noticably different stripes. Do these come with any markings at all??

Thankyou Jo. Mine does look just the same. No backstamp or marks either! Where the salt is chipped, it's quite a white chalky type texture underneath. Not porcelain I don't think. Quite rough to the touch.

and so the saga continues...

Great example of the dangers of attributing on a website... for some reason a lot of people take what they read as gospel...no questions asked.

Will be interesting to see the outcome...

Crown Lynn condiment sets - aka often attributed to "Frank Carpay" - Empty An update on the condiment set debate...

Post  collectiques Mon Feb 09, 2009 5:35 pm

I met a man recently who worked for Crown Lynn for many years - from a cadetship through to Head Chemist and then Management positions.

I showed him an example of the condiment set we've been discussing and he said it was probably before his time as he started in the early 60's.
He didn't consider though that it was Crown Lynn clay used in the sets in his professional opinion.
